I refuse to come second
to someone so repellant and small
and I refuse to be told
I will never stand tall

I refuse to let him
push me around
and I refuse to feed his smile
with my poor, pathetic frowns

I refuse for you to stand
and think it's okay
and I refuse for you to see
me any other day

I refuse this friendship
and I refuse this home
what I ever saw in you
will become unknown

but you don't refuse
you pick and you choose
so it shouldn't be news
that I give up
